Building from a solid West Coast hip-hop base, Spice 1 adds ragamuffin and dancehall flourishes, which makes him distinctive as an MC. Much of the record suffers from unimaginative production and standard musical ideas, but Spice 1 is an engaging rapper -- he is talented enough to disguise the weaknesses in the music with his verbal skills. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine | Musical Guests |  | Kokane |  | MC Eiht |  | Joya |  | E-40 |
